bush and dick janney was george w. bush and dick cheney. the country was happy to see them go for understandable reasons. four years after the bush/cheney administration, the new republican party nominee, mitt romney, has made precisely zero public appearanced with george w. bush or dick cheney. this is still the most interesting thing in american politics. the reconstruction of the republican party post-george w. bush and post-dick cheney is as yet incomplete and still the most interesting thing to watch. hot is the new republican party going to be after that? what is the new republican party leadership going to be after them? all of this has led to some very awkward moments on the campaign trail this year for the republican party's new nominee. the first president bush is much more highly regarded than his son is. but he is a little older and a little unpredictable in public now. previously, that has manifested as some unexpected crying jags at public speeches and things. nothing that would harm his image, but there's an element of unpred

you have to hunt george w. bush interviews on youtube. it's cheney hosting fund-raisers for romney at his house. he won't even say george w. bush's name on the record. dick cheney is the guy republicans have welcomed back to capitol hill today to argue for his chosen policies on the military. while george w. bush was making his 22nd endorsement that included referring to politics as a swamp he crawled out of in an hour-long interview with an obscure think tank. this california college think tank listed the interview privately. if he looks teeth on edge while he's making the endorsement, maybe it's because he seems to recognize that no one wants to run with him as the wind beneath their wings. do not count george bush out. he's reinventing himself starting with a new book that's out today. it's called "the 4% solution, unleashing the economic growth america needs," and there's a foreword by president bush, says his name twice on the cover, has a bunch of essays by economists he likes, about how the economy can be made to grow at a rate of
